The magical barrier known as the Veil is all that stands between our reality and the Otherworld. Those with the gift of magic can pull energy through it to perform miraculous feats of power. The Inquisitio opposes these mages, who have organized themselves within the Society for Psychical Defense.

She has the power to either eradicate the Inquisitio or rob the mages of their abilities. Only one side can win and it will be the side that gets to the wild mage first. Ania Zaleska lives a perfectly ordinary—albeit floundering—life in Poland's second-biggest city until the day she explodes. She's dug from the rubble of her apartment building by shadow mage Noah Otieno, whose job it becomes to get Ania's wild magic under control. Noah is affiliated with the Society for Psychical Defense but she has kept herself away from magical politics as much as possible. Now she is in charge of potentially the most powerful magical weapon on either side of the war, she must decide how she can best keep her safe—especially when their magic brings them together in ways only wild magic can.

Of course, her plans didn’t include a beaten down rancher, a serious case of homesickness, or a renovation gone horribly wrong. But when a very kind and attractive neighbor comes to her rescue, it seems as though Carley might have a reason to stay after all. Bree knew Carley would be a problem the moment they met. Not only had her wolf altered her to the human, but Bree couldn’t get her out of her head. If not for her brother Jackson and her loyalty to the pack, she would’ve told Carley right then and there what the other woman meant to her wolf.

Or is there a reason why unions between humans and wolves rarely exist?
